C4 Questions :-)
I have a few small questions regarding the 95 C4 before buying some parts on line.
What's the difference between a 95 C4 Coupe & Hatchback?? Asked by Vendor
How can I tell if I have a HD suspension or STD suspension before ordering Brake Parts? Asked by Vendor
Can I install 13" Rotors on my 95 C4 Base Coupe?? The factory Rotors are 12"????
Thanks for the help in advance :-)

1. Nothing, one in the same.
2. Look for the RPO codes under the console lid. Then google the codes for your year.
3. Not sure on this one but I would assume since there's a 13" option you could.

If you have 255's front and 285's rear, it's safe to say you have the base suspension. But look under the center console. If HD suspension, it'll say ZO7.

The 13" brake option is J55. It was optional from '88 -'94 while the base was a 12" rotor. The 13" was standard on '95-'96.
The bigger brakes were required/or part of several suspension options like the Z51 from '88 -'94. Because they were part of the suspension options, some parts places call it the HD suspension option even for brakes. This does not apply for '95-'96 since all of them have the big brakes (13").
